So if I post my before pics now, I have till the 15 to fix?

Yep, everyone has until Jan 15th to complete their renovations and send me their summaries.  With the busy holidays, I'm sure that lots of people will be utilizing this time to finish up and take their pictures.  It's all perfectly acceptable.

 

There's even time for more people to enter.  But time is quickly running out.

[Tamberav]

Alright, I think I got everything done that is needed to enter.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

[sadie]

just sent in my before and after pics.  Can't wait to see everyones tanks.

[debbeach13]

Quick question. If I sent Seabass my 3 before pictures and posted them in the tank journal but did not save them anywhere else, is it acceptable to just post and send the after pictures to seabass?

Not today because the tank needs a little clean up first.

 

[seabass]

If the before and after pics aren't included along with your summary, then just let me know, or remind me, where I can find them (like in a recent journal post or in a previous message).  I'm going to be pretty flexible in this particular contest; all that I require is a message with:

1. One, Two, or Three before pics (taken sometime between Oct 1st and and Dec 29th).  Include them in your final contest message to me if you can (or let me know where to find them).
2. One, Two, or Three after pics (taken anytime between Oct 1st and Jan 15th). Again, include them in your final contest message if possible, or let me know where to find them.
3. An optional summary not to exceed 200 words.  If it's longer, I'll only include the first 200 words followed by "...".

I need everybody who is participating to send me their message by January 15th.  So let's wrap up those renos, take your final pics, write an optional summary, and send me (@seabass) a message.  Times running short.

 

Good Luck Everyone!

all will need to be done Fri night as I'm out of town through Monday morning, 😒

[seabass]

 

 

Reminder:  I need your messages sent to me by the end of the day today.

Sadly, yes.  You'll miss out on the prizes, but the idea was to get people to spend some time making their tanks more interesting and enjoyable, while improving the environment of the animals we keep.  It's really never too late to do that.

For the contest I think so, but not too late to do a little tank reno! I’m still working on mine.

I thought that there would be at least a dozen.

[seabass]

Yeah, the final number of contestants was a bit light, especially for a contest with such a low barrier to entry and time commitment.  I was really hoping for a couple of dozen examples that would help to motivate others.

Half a day late?

Good enough for me.  Send me a summary if you'd like to include one.  I'm adding you to the list.

My tank got hit with dinos just as the contest closed but wasn't sure how long that battle was going to be like but it recently just cleared up so it just wasn't meant to be 😂
